His advice was for me to take some time to travel and get to know each other even more. When he said that, I chuckled and asked him, "Don't you think we've gotten to know each other well enough during this time of being married?""I'm not referring to that," he replied.

Plus, when the three years pass, I'm certain Peyton will remind you of your promise to marry her when you can, and I don't see you considering that," Ethan said, thinking about the future."The truth is, these past few months without seeing her, I haven't missed her as much as I thought I would.
